7am Wednesday 1 FOOT OF POW Medium to Heavy Density (NOT WET

) at the house on the access rd. possibly more on the hill and still snowing! Already begun the auto and driveway dig out so I know the nature of what I have been shoveling.

EDIT- I just went back outside with a tape measure and found a non wind blown spot (and there is not much wind by the way but I am striving for accuracy) and measured 10 and 3/4" and its still snowing.

It doesn't look like a foot. K reports 7" but looking at the k1 lodge webcam more like 5-6".

It probably blew around a bit on the deck. I measured 10 3/4" in the driveway.

Wet snow makes good base layers. We'll take it as this will mean more terrain opening up.

Might be fresh glue.... which becomes packed glue, a good thing. But not powder.

I thought polyester made good base layers, not wet snow. Never tried one, but a wet snow base layer sounds too cold to keep me warm.
